SILVA, Marília Emanuela Santos.
Résumé:
In this research, my objective is to rescue through my memories and based on the sources
administered, to bring an account of my experience from childhood to professional life, using
as a reference the entire trajectory lived in my hometown, Esperança, which is located in rural
Paraíba, 149km from the capital João Pessoa. I therefore propose, with my writing, to follow
the paths I traced in the field of education that led me to choose teaching. The selected
documentation is based on photographs, documents and testimonies that will serve as sources
of encouragement and guidance. The choice of the theme was motivated, among other things,
by my identification and love for the place where I live, thus seeking to create a work that
relates my story within the story of my beloved Esperança. In my analyses, I dialogued with
some authors, such as Paulo Freire with his reflections on the role of education and educators
in the educational process within society, as well as the contributions and reflections
addressed by Larrosa regarding practice in the teaching career.
